Thomas Graham was a member of FVCC since 1999 and like most Danville kids he was a caddy at the club in the 60’s. Tom’s greatest caddy experience was carrying the clubs of his granddaughter, Leah until his health gave out. Tom was liked by all at FVCC and was a regular participant in the weekly poker games in the card room. He really enjoyed his “senior” card crew and especially loved playing in the senior golf events at Frosty. Tom also spent many hot summer afternoons in the pool with Leah. Each year Tom and Andrew played against Joe and Jeremy Graham in the “Graham Open” which ended a 20 year tradition with a 10-10 tie. As Danville’s Borough Manager, Tom was the town ambassador and if he wasn’t at Frosty you could find him on the streets of town greeting the citizens and solving problems.
He will be remembered for his constant good humor, infectious smile, devotion to golf and love of Danville and all it represents. Tom was good friends with both Gene Hamilton and Mike Boone and loved golfing with them. The greens in heaven are rocking with that trio shooting par every round.
Following Tom’s example, bring your kids and grandkids out to Frosty Valley to play the greatest game ever, make life-long friends and enjoy the beauty of our terrific golf course.
Honor him by golfing, sharing in a Tito’s toast for him and fill the day with memories and laughter for the past as well as making new ones, as he would have wanted!
